As I have read through the threads in this forum, I am not the only one with this problem, but for some reason none of the solutions make sense to me.
Earlier today, I was trying to use the "Prophet AKU2.3 pdamobiz customized rom released [G3 Only]" to downgrade and didn't notice that my XDA NEO is 4G (the tool is for 3G only). Now after each boot the screen is stuck with the Boot Page showing:
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
GSM 02.19.21
OS 1.0.13.21
I am so pissed at myself and so frustrated.
I have tried hard-resetting and the problem still persists. I am able to get into the Bootloader by holding the camera button and pushing soft-reset. I am just not sure where to go from here. I connected the phone per usb to the computer. The phone indicates that it's connected to USB. Every ROM upgrade file I have tried gives me an update error, since they are all expecting the phone to be connected to the computer through ActiveSync.
I bought this phone in Germany and currently live in the US, so it will be tough to send it back for repairs. Plus, I don't even know if I have the original receipt anymore.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Extract the rom file you are using to flash your phone, to a folder on your pc, than Extract the file i attached ("ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip") into this folder. than connect your phone to pc and double click on "ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.exe".
cross your fingers.
reboot the computer first
I guess the trick was to reboot the computer first. After the reboot, I was able to use the provided No_Vendor_ID Updater to reflash again. Now it's all set. Thank you very much for the advice.

cool, any time.
Before someone comes and flames me for creating a new thread (*hide from DaveShaw*) let me explain:
I have created a Wiki page for users who are stuck at the SPL (a.k.a Bootloader, Tri-Colour screen etc.):
Kaiser_stuck_at_bootloader
This has helped out a number of users who have become stuck at the SPL but every day I see more and more users getting stuck and creating new thread, or going off topic in other threads.
What to do if you get stuck:
Read the Wiki Page and follow the advice: Kaiser_stuck_at_bootloader
If you have tried all the steps in the wiki and still have a problem, read the feedback from other users in this thread and any advice I give out in this thread.
If you are still having problems please post all the details you can about what you have done and what version ROM / Radio / SPL you are running in this thread.

Thanks to much I have learned from Master Jocky_W, I am currently working on hacking o a couple of Jockey's new HardSPL's into MFG variations. This will allow for the checking, formatting & fixing of OS flash memory blocks.
I am just about done I think, & then off to Jock it will go for his comments & keen eye.

Nice one, I was thinking MFG 3.* HardSPL would be good, but I assumed there was a good reason for them not to exist. Little did I know that's where you were hiding
Great work.
Dave
Good idea with this thread, congratulations.
Just to add something useful for the thread, here is my tip: (for n00bs, or a "newbie-n00bs" since I consider myself a n00b too )
No matter what, DON'T PANIC.
If your phone boots at least partially (the bootloader starts and shows R/G/D versions) maybe its not that bad
I've flashed few times "bad ROMs" and my phone stucked on bootloader. Luckily none of them was that bad that I couldn't recover from it.
What I do first:
disconnect the phone from anything you had it connected to,
and go into bootloader mode (camera button + reset with stylus).
It will show the tricolor+white screen, SPL version on the top and "Serial" at the bottom.
Plug in your USB cable.
If the "Serial" will change into "USB" at the bottom, you are most likely ready to fix the problem
- so flash your phone with new clean ROM now (I would go with clean stock ROM including radio as well)
oh, and don't worry about the ActiveSync info that may be displayed by the RUU app, because you are already in bootloader mode (RUU or KaiserCustomRUU etc, at first disconnects AS in order to set your phone in bootloader mode, thats why the warnings about AS being "green" etc)
HTH
this one isn't covered!
I go right to bootlader and see RUUNBH upper right!
my SPL is 3.56.hard
CPLD-8
I would flash my stock rom BUT i cant get a usb connection to work at all!
mtty doen't work at all!
hmm?!?!?!??
HELP, please!

Does "USB" show in the bootloader when you connect the USB plug or not?
Dave
yep
yes, those words DO change. But nothing can be done on my PC.

Have you done the following to get MTTY to work?
* Download mtty.exe
* Disable activesync (connection settings -> uncheck "allow usb connections")
* Connect your Kaiser to PC using USB cable.
* Open mtty, select USB port and click OK.
* Hit ENTER twice, you should see the "Cmd>" prompt.
* Type the command "boot".
Are you using Vista or XP?
Dave
yes again!
i have disabled usb connections through active synch and killed ALL the mobile processes through task mngr. Still, usb port cannot be opened through mtty!
it's crazy! =[
also, when i plug in my tilt, i get a beep beep beep from my PC saying failure to cconnect to hardware. =[

I'm leaving work now, but can you trying flashing your carrier ROM from the SD card, that might do it.
Also, try the attached MTTY.
If that don't work, can you find a Windows XP Machince and try the normal MTTY method.
Dave
No Luck
Since I can't establish a usb connection I have no way of getting ANYTHING to my tilt.
I can't access my SD card.
MTTY says command error when I say boot.
I don't think MTTY is connecting.
Does my SPL need to be changed?
If so, how do I change it if I can't get a connection to my tilt at all?
I GOT IT!
i TOOK your advice to flash from my SD my naming a rom KAISIMG.nbh and using my PC to put on card. then i just entered bootlader. I flashed a random new rom (not at&t) and it worked in restoring my phone.
I didn't use a stock rom cause my spl didn't match. thanks for all your help man.

BTW, if you do not have the RUUNBH on the screen, but can't get OS to boot and you didn't flash my patched SPL's for prevention, I now have a solution for those too in my thread (also sticky, so easy to find).

nice update! really useful to all kaiser owners.
btw, you wrote:
"This method will not work if RUUNBH is showing and cannot get the OS to boot even once"
I removed second part if you don't mind, the method doesn't need that as a requirement. (and it will actually unset RUUNBH flag too if the loading of the special SSPL and the flash is successful, but for RUUNBH issue this solution is overkill, because for that "set 16 0" is fine.)

First, I’m using the ROM L26KDV12. I used the tweaking program that comes with the ROM and I hit done, the phone said to restart the device to get effective or cancel to restart later but I choose to restart the device. So, the Phone restarted and I stuck in bootloader mode.
I tried to re-flash my ROM L26KDV12 and I got the 100% result in the screen but when I restarted the device it was stuck again in bootloader mode. I tried to update the Radio but got no luck also.
So I decided to update the ROM via MicroSD(Dutty’s Diamond V1.9) and I got 100%(complete result on the screen again) but when I did the last instruction of updating the ROM via MicroSD(to restart the device), my phone goes off and I can’t open anymore..
Please I need help..
Hello,
Today i bought the kaiser and wanted to rom flash it to 6.1
My plan is to flash it to L26KDTLB6 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2574491&posted=1#post2574491) i've followed the instructions here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2261226&postcount=2
and the flash was in progress but cancelled after 14% due to communication problems (????)... now when i resettred my kaiser i see this weird red green blue and white screen.
I am terribly worried i might have ruined my kaiser even before really using it.
I am begging you for help.. i would appreciate any kind of help from you guys.
Thank you so much

Wow! Sounds like you are in deep doodoo. I had almost an identical problem last night trying to flash ROMeOS 4.7. I went and read the stickies at the top of this forum and was back up running in no time.

Sounds like you did not HardSPL. The tri color screen you are seeing is called bootloader. It's not as scary as it might seem at first. When you connect yoru device to your computer does it still show the letters "USB" at the bottom? If so, try flashing the stock rom for your device and see if that will fix your problem. After that be sure to make sure you've properly hardspl'd your device before flashing anything else.

HOW COME YOU KNOW HOW TO WRITE BUT YOU CAN'T READ?
geez...
I had the same problem once. I remember I solved it that I first flashed it back to the OEM that came with it, and then flashed it again. It worked. Hard SPL and CID unlocker helped being that the phone was locked.
If you dont have OEM OS you can always find one here, just use the Search button.
Secondly, you have to follow the steps exactly as instructed because those are the only way to successful flashing. Are you sure that you didnt overlook one of the steps?
Pay special attentiton to the 2nd Q&A and also other Q&A being that there are all the answers.
Happy flashing mate.
Hello all,
I was able to revert back to hTC'S 6.1 rom...So everything was back to normal.
The thing is, i really want to make the kaiser look good with the d3d driver and the touchflo 3d, I'll give the http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=1#post2574491 rom one more shot this time ill use
SSPL-KAIS.exe (is that ok ?? will that prep my device for rom flashing ??? )
is there another cooked rom that has the touch flo 3d and the d3d drivers ???

Do NOT flash another rom until you have hard spl'd your device. Make sure you check out the thread at the top of this forum, which you already sited once. You should also consider sim/security unlocking your device as well. You can ONLY use jumpspl to put hardspl on your device. Absolutely do not start flashing roms until you can enter bootloader and next to spl: see "hard spl" somewhere in the title.
Hi
Ok, here's what i've done to prepare the device
1) i ran kaiser-HardSPL.exe and loaded the nbh that came with it
2) I copied SSPL-KAIS.exe to the kaiser and ran it
thats it... i didn't however see hard spl in the title.. i did see JUMPspl though

you are so making this too hard on yourself. Follow these directions to the letter and you'll be fine:
How to Install 3.2x.Hard SPL:
1. Plug the device into your PC
2. Copy Jump/Soft to your device. use JumpSPL If you have the "White Screen" issue, if you don't, you can use SSPL-KAIS.exe.
3. Take out your SD card & SIM Card.
4. Run Jump/Soft SPL on your device
5. Wait for the bootloader screen to appear and "USB" to show.
6. Right-click activesync, go into connection settings and ensure Allow USB Connections is unchecked
7. Unplug your device from the USB port, wait 5 - 20 seconds, plug it back in.
8. Run KaiserCustomRUU.exe and flash the SPL
If you have problems with the above process, try this:
1a. download the attached files
1b. pull out the battery and reinsert it (this step *is* important)
1c. connect your PC to phone with a USB cable
2. REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !!
3. copy JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe to your device and run it (make sure the USB cable is still connected). If you still get a white screen then reset your device and now try JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe
4. after a few seconds "USB" appears on the phone display
5. unplug and replug the usb cable
6. deselect "Allow USB connections" in Activesync connection settings
7. now flash hardSPL (run KaiserCustomRUU.exe from flash-hardSPL.zip on your PC)
Notes:
With the JumpSPL you should *not* flash radio roms, OS roms or full roms. The JumpSPL is only needed to flash a HardSPL (or SPL)
the link to the thread in which this came from is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396922
Having just redone this this morning to revert back to 3.29, I can confirm that it works.
In the future, please don't start a thread for this type of porblem. We all starte out by reading. I've been a part of this forum for 3 years and learned all I have from just reading and asking questions that could not otherwise be answered.

you did not read the instructions correctly. Try reading them again.
It says:
How to Install 3.2x.Hard SPL:
1. Plug the device into your PC
2. Copy Jump/Soft to your device. use JumpSPL If you have the "White Screen" issue, if you don't, you can use SSPL-KAIS.exe.

6. Right-click activesync, go into connection settings and ensure Allow USB Connections is unchecked
7. Unplug your device from the USB port, wait 5 - 20 seconds, plug it back in.
8. Run KaiserCustomRUU.exe and flash the SPL
You are stopping at step 5. Perform steps 6, 7, & 8. After that time you can soft reset the device while holding down the camera button (that will take you to the tri colored bootloader screen) and it will say "hardspl" if you have done it correctly.
If you don't read more closely you WILL break your phone and nobody here will be able to help you. These procedures are easy enough to follow if you take your time and read. I only say this to save you a great deal of frustration when your phone dies later.
Also, remember in the future that all the information you are seeking is readily available if you look for it. Dont' expect someone to GIVE you the answer, and please please please....post your questions in a thread that is already around rather than starting a new one!
@ Scothua
like the way you think . . .
scotchua,
Thank you for your assistance. i've finally upgraded my rom.
thank you all.
I have an ex-Vodafone, sim unlocked HTC touch diamond and it won't turn on. All I can do is bring it into the tri-colour screen/bootloader. When plugged into my computer the phone screen goes from serial to usb, but thats as far as it gets. Communication with activesync is no longer possible. I have no idea what to try now, I've gone as far as my non-technical mind will go ! help
I'm in the UK. Phone info;
Duttys V2.7 RC2 WWE - 27/10/08
Radio 1.08.25.08
P3700
Bootloader screen reads;
DIAM 100 MFG 64M
SPL 1.40 Olinex
MicroP- Diam (LED) v11
PSOC - Diam STAGE_PVT v0x30
Welcome to forums
Please have a deep read here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Diamond
You´ll find all needed to do a succesfull reflash.
Good luck,
no comms with activesync
thanks for the link. have read the info on flashing my device but my phone no longer communicates with activesync. Is it bricked ? Phone won't go beyond initial 'vodafone' startup screen. i don't know what to do now.
which os in computer do you use ??? if in tri-color boot loader, pc only recognized the HTC driver device, but Activesync won't show the connect. You understand what i mean? Go Flash yourself your device with successfully, I will pretty sure that your device doesn't brick.
yes correct you can run the RUU wrapper while the phone is in the boot loader and itll still flash the rom
i use windows xp home sp2, i don't understand the flash process and can't get further than the tri-colour screen. I think i need a very simple step by step walkthrough if I'm to get any further !
ok
down load the rom of your choice and exract it
in the folder there should be a file called ruu_signed.nbh and a exe file called RUU wrapper or something like that if it doesnt come with the RUU wrapper it should be able to be downloaded from a stickied thread at the top of the diamond rom forum
then u need to connect ur phone to the pc while its in the boot screen the click on the ruu wrapper in the file on the pc and it should install on ur phone
hi, i downloaded the ruu, then connect my phone in boot screen, start the install, it asks me to make an activesync connection. activesync no longer finds my phone so no connection is made. i got this close, what now ? thanks for the help !
Done it finally
after many dime bar moments and weeks of annoyance the touch diamond finally came back to life. expecting this phone to actually work as advertised turned out to be a bridge too far. cheers for the help.
Hi there, I tired to issue my problem in some other threads, but without any response so far - probably my problem is more specific.
I was using AHEN 6.5-R6i Rom for few weeks when some time after charging my Raphael was not powering up at all. I presume no relation between Ahen rom and the problem (as described further).
I bought new battery and it occurred that probably power charging circuit was damaged, because it newer completed charging, the device was always very hot and discharged in few minutes even when turned off (until completely drained out). What is more the USB connector works only for charging (maybe damaged data connection circuit?).
As a result, before returning the device for guarantee servicing I wanted to downgrade all the roms to the original ones. As advised I started with Radio and OS stocks, but after bootloader update (from SD card, cause my USB doesn't work) I got only "upgrading ROM code error" and the device tries to load some ROM, but putting any on SD card doesn't work anymore.
Any suggestions how to cope with this situation?
If you need help please provide us with important information. So fill your signature first. Mainly if you have hard-spl or if you bought olipro cid unlock and what exactly you have done until now. Also wether your device is CDMA or GSM? If it is GSM than you have to first restore Stock Radio first, after that if you cid-unlocked the phone you have to relock it again. Than remove hard-spl and install stock ROM. But if your USB is broken, i think there is no chance to remove Hard-SPL neither to restore to stock. Remember that when you are in a bootloader and you do not see that the device is connected to activesync or Windows Mobile Device Center it does not mean that it is not connected. Just check you hear the sound indicating that something is connected to usb in vista or windows xp.
If you need help please provide us with important information. So fill your signature first.
=> done
Mainly if you have hard-spl or if you bought olipro cid unlock and what exactly you have done until now.
=> chnged SPL to OliNex, OS to AHEN 6.5-R6i, Radio to version required by AHEN rom
Also wether your device is CDMA or GSM? If it is GSM than you have to first restore Stock Radio first, after that if you cid-unlocked the phone you have to relock it again. Than remove hard-spl and install stock ROM.
=> I retracked the changes as indicated changing both radio and OS to original ones, but had just problem at last step = flashing oryginal SPL (because I made it from SD).
But if your USB is broken, i think there is no chance to remove Hard-SPL neither to restore to stock.
=> Hmm, anyway right now I am stack because bootloader is "loading ..." every time I reboot the device.
Remember that when you are in a bootloader and you do not see that the device is connected to activesync or Windows Mobile Device Center it does not mean that it is not connected. Just check you hear the sound indicating that something is connected to usb in vista or windows xp.
=> I tried to use some terminals to see if I can execute commands directly or see any output, but I haven't even succeeded to open the port. Maybe I am doing something wrong - I give it a try once more tonight.
So what version of SPL is bootloader showing? If it's showing something like 1.90.0000, you are in bootloader and USB circuit is not damaged you should be able to normaly flash ROM from your provider from bootloader. So download the ROM from your T-Mobile it should be some exe. When you see bootloader tricolor screen coonect usb cable from Touch Pro to computer and run the exe soubor with your desired ROM. It should work if everything is OK!
If your device is showing 1.90.OliNex, than i cant help you because i do not know how to remove Hard-SPL from bootloader, maybe it is possible, but for more experienced tech guy, who i am not
PS: Hope you did not bricked your device because Hard-SPL and removing Hard-SPL is all done with cable, you cant do it from SD, and you cant flash original SPL before removing Hard-SPL!
hmm, it seems that I have managed to flash, at least partly, the original SPL from SD card, cause it shows version 1.90.0000. Partly, because it states that the previalus rom update was not successful :-(
In this state (in boot loader mode) I can't even charge battery so I have to do it externaly. Connecting to PC doesn't work (PC USB and cable are fine). The only thing that change after connecting to USB charger is that device gets hot ...
i am sorry to say, that you probably bricked your device... Maybe someone could help with more advanced hardware, software support, but i am not the right person...You can try to put your device to service and hope they will not recognize what have you done, but it depends on your stock SPL version. I got czech T-Mobile and stock SPL was 1.69.0000, so maybe yours was the same...
Next time please read more carefully, search or ask someone if you are not still sure, things about flashing SPLs are very dangerous if they are not done carefully...
Can anyone help this guy? He tried to flash original SPL over Hard-SPL, and therefore it is not looking very well for him to unbrick his Touch Pro...
So ... I got it from the service and they changed the motherboard and the battery, no charges
It was brickes, because of cherging circuit issue.
Unfortunatley I send it back to service, because the loudspeaker is not working ...
Actually I am the same exact boat as the OP. My phone stopped charging and its because the USB port is broken. I need to change the phone back to stock but if its not charging its probably not going to get a connection to the computer either. I read that on at least the Hermes it was possible to flash from the SD card. This is not possible for the TP? Thanks

You can flash the ROM, radio, splash screens etc etc from SD card - you will then have to send the phone back with hard spl still installed as you need a usb connection to remove it.
Dont assume you cant get a usb data conenction though - try it and see!
I did try the connection, didn't work. How do you flash from the sdcard? I just dont want to brick it.
Please read this thread on how to flash (including how to flash from SD card).
Again, (assuming you have the correct hard SPL currently flashed) you can flash a ROM, radio & splash screens etc to your phone from the SD card (one at a time) but as previously said you need a USB connection to flash hard spl (dont attempt it from the sd card).
So, my Raphael arrived from service after the second repair (loudspeaker not working) - it seems all works this time
By the way, that is correct that a USB connection is necessary to flash hard spl, but .. I was desperate because the USB was broken, so I tried it from SD. The effect was good enough for the service - the Hard-SPL seemed to be reverted to oryginal one, however the booting was stacked at loading the ROM
